Today audiobooks release their debut EP ‘Gothenburg’.
For audiobooks, the new project from David Wrench and Evangeline Ling, “the EP brings together some of the different elements that make up what audiobooks is, taking 4 tracks from the already large body of work we have recorded over the last year.”
Of those four songs is the EP’s title track, ‘Gothenburg’, which was released last week and praised by the Observer for its “ghostly vocals and glitchy industrial beats,” and was also selected as one of Pitchfork’s best new tracks. “’Gothenburg’ captures the energy and excitement at the outset of a creative friendship,” David and Evangeline say. Following ‘Gothenburg’ is ‘Pebbles’, “the result of an experiment in telepathic songwriting. Entirely improvised and unedited it was recorded before going to a barbecue.”
